ITEM II - QON=MM PEAT HEARING FOR nR.wMP rrrmUrnnrn
Denny Fitzgerald, owner, presented the Commissioners with a new plan and
c•.ammented on the property once called "The Trees" which is about 9.04 acres
north of the High School. The new plan has one lot omitted in the front and one
lot added in the back making the front lots larger. There is a large pod area
which is non - buildable in the plat but ideal for City park land and the
applicant would like to dedicate this to the City. The existing house on Lot 10
has a log driveway at an angle with a retaining wail which would need an
easement.
City Planner Graser commented with regard to the concept plat which has been
around for years called "The Trees". Mr. Graser commented that sewer stubs need
to be put in which would be the developer's cost, a lot of grading is needed in
one area and a grading plan needs to be submitted, the lots are very deep, the
lots need to be aligned parrallel, the topography is unique with a pond, lots of
open space, and several large trees. The driveway to the existing house would
need an easement, park dedication area could be a concern without road access,
storm water management easement would have to be given, the natural features
should be considered as to what happens, each lot should have a building pad,
and there is a question of the buildability of Lot 1.
The Planning Commissioners discussed the Concept Plan with regard to parallel
alignment of lots, topography, utilities, easements needed, park lard, poling,
and felt the larger lots on the new plan were an improvement.

foot lot, the appplicant is requesting a 4 foot aide yard variance to rebuild
the deteriorating garage which is constructed on cement block that is caving

additional front yard setback isn't a hardship in this case.

view from them.
